I'm right there with you my man... I've had limited success releasing as soon as his feet leave the ground. But, that was in practice mode. Something's gotta give... smh lol
Is Pattick Patterson the highest rated rookie besides John Wall and Turner? He's at 72 and Derrick Favors is 73. All those other guys are top 3 players. I agree with 2K's ratings on that. :grin:
He also has an "A" potential which I found shocking considering reports of his limited ceiling. Anyway, I'm leaving association alone and just doing Jordan challenges right now. I want to wait until the opening day roster update before I lock myself into my real Association (I have one now just to learn the team but am going to start over). Hopefully, I'll get Martin's jumper down before I start my "real association".
By the way, Pat Patterson is a goldmine for trades. Just messing around in association I was able to get Granger Indiana 1st Round Pick for Patterson Battier Houston 1st Round Pick I was also able to package Patterson with Jeffries and get Gerald Wallace from Charlotte. I probably could have got more with those packages, but basically 2Pat is a great guy to package in a trade. I didn't even see if I could net Iggy from the Sixers, but I probably could. When I get home from work, I'll probably mess around with trades some more and see what I can get.
This passing system is driving me crazy, turnovers everywhere against the ai. I've gotten used to it, but slowing down leads me into way too many nail biters. And scola's baseline jumper keeps hitting the side of the backboard. Anybody actually able to hit a 3 with shane, cuz he is bricking wide open treys for me.
Yao Ming is beast on the game if you know how to use him. Grabs all the rebs, blocks shots like crazy and is the best post scorer.
Lowry's 3pt % was 27.2 last year, Miller's has a career 31.6% average, though he was down to 28% last year.
Haven't played it on Wii nor seen any reviews for the Wii version. I would suspect it would lose alot of the visuals and audio compared to the xbox and ps3 versions. The new NBA Jam on the Wii I have heard is good.
yea i mean its just a video game. i dont like playing with kmart on the game and i never use patterson so i got some people i enjoy playing with. not trying to do "realistic" trades
I used to have problems with his release, till I found out that you have to hold the shoot stick/button down a little longer than expected...hold it while he's cuffing the ball down, and release it as soon as he's right about to shoot it. If you practice with him, the symbol at the top of the screen will let you know if you did it right or not
I love how Brooks is a whole lot better on this game...and how you can hop step to whichever direction you want while he's dribbling to get his shot off like he does
